  7. What do you think the objective should be? The web site shows “Learn how to make teamwork or collaborative learning work effectively online. Forget the tests! Forget the quizzes! Let students have fun learning together as they are delegated to various projects and bring back information while learning at the same time. With careful planning, you can use Blackboard, Moodle or even the Web to make learning fun for your students and attain the Zen of teaching for yourself.”

  8. Congrats! You Just Did a Collaborative Exercise! • Did you find it easy? • Did you find it fun? • Did you see how it engaged people?

  10. I rather use quizzes and tests • Test and quizzes are waste of time • People are nervous so you may or may not get the real facts if they learn (false positive) • Once test is taken, how many students will come back to learn what they missed? • 1 out of 20 maybe?
